Luka is gonna be in a wheelchair by the time the Mavs win the championship
Refs were cooking this game 😭
I swear watching this game that I saw at least 17 players die, and many several times
that hack a lively ruined their whole flow
Luka was getting killed out there, Mavs are far more experienced and it will show. Kyrie is on another level. The hack a lively lost them this game. You can see the momentum swing when lively made the free shots. You don’t play honest, you lose.
The “Go full MMA on Luka” strategy did not yield the desired result
What a game lol
1st seed resorting to intentionally fouling with 6 minutes left.
What happened to the game I love
Luka needs a medkit
there are not enough words to express how putrid the Thunder were rebounding the ball today
Just got out of a Turkish prison, when did PJ Washington become the best player in the league? Has he won any MVPs yet?
PJ Washington
Ugly ass game – refs needed to set a better tone but instead they let it turn into a cage fight
The first seed team doing a Hack-a-Lively with 6 minutes left in the game down 5 points is so ~~bizarre~~ cowardly…
PJ Washington went from averaging under 11 points a game over the first 7 playoff games of the year, to leading the team in scoring in each of the last two games against OKC. What a fantastic turnaround, right when the team needed it most.
ITSA PJ PARTY BABY
Refs today:
If they die they die
That shit was ugly
Best and most athletic team Luka has ever had. So disappointed he had to be hurt for it.
Shaq after the game: Great win Luka but I think SGA got robbed he’s my game 3 winner. Reminds me of a time I got robbed out of a game 3.. **twice!**
I’m glad everyone had fun and nobody was angry and we all like each other a lot.
Washington is playing out of his mind.
The much anticipated PJ Washington takeover game
Lu Dort the first Nba player to have 30 fouls in a game
That last quarter zipped by ngl… What a fun game
The trade for pj Washington is looking beyond brilliant right now
I’m just enjoying the game to game narrative shifts in every matchup in the second round. Apparently, it was supposed to be Celtics 4-0, then Wolves 4-0, then OKC 4-0.
What a wonderful ride.
another great game and deserved Dallas victory. OKC had way too many uncharacteristic mistakes down the stretch
Dort had like 10 fouls
I’m sore just watching that game lol that was fucking war
Luka is taking a beating. What a game, great series so far.
I. WANT. PJ. WASHINGTON!!!
HUGE bounce back game for Kyrie
As a Suns fan can’t believe I’m saying I’m glad Dallas won that game.
ok i get it , you are letting them play. But dort is going to kill luka, like this shit is out of hand
Kyrie. Irving.
Lu Dort looking like Skyrim ragdoll physics out there 😂
Am I crazy or Jason Kidd has done a great job
Luka was barely moving near the end. Dude seems to get more and more banged up every game
Refs really inconsistent. Stretches where they’d let them play, then touch fouls. Damn.
I better never hear any talk about Luka’s effort. Dude has more grit than anyone. Gives more to his team beaten and bruised than most players healthy
Absolutely pitiful appearance by us tonight. We have to get our offense in order or we will flame out. Dort is flopping. Players scared to shoot. Mark not coaching his best. Not over yet but need to shape up. Gg mavs
Watching hack a Shaq in 2024 was fucking painful
Lively running from Chet was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while💀
Dam on the one hand the Mavs are up now, but Lukas health is getting worse. Dunno if he can keep this up tbh.
But if Luka was healthy, then this wouldnt be a series. The Mavs really do have something special here and i think theyd be fools if they dont run it back no matter the outcome of this series or the playoffs as a whole.
Lively is still raw in the offensive half court, miss to many easy lay up and dunks, not a great freethrower (but he made 4/4 when it matter most), but what a monster at defending the rim. And he’s really good at guarding quicker and more agile players too. A future all Nba defensive player for sure.
